Did you know? The kingdom of Corona in Tangled was inspired by a real-life place, Mont-Saint-Michel? Not only that, but the hidden valley was inspired by Rocamadour, a small clifftop village in south-central France known for the Cité Religieuse complex of religious buildings, which is accessed via the Grand Escalier staircase.
While you're imagining all things Tangled, can you picture if the absolutely iconic (and beautiful) lanterns that were such a focal point in the movie had been fireworks instead? They almost were!
That little detail changed the whole mood of the scene.
Executive Producer John Lasseter and his wife lit a lantern together on their anniversary while visiting Bora Bora, so when story artist John Ripa and his team floated (wink-wink) the idea of replacing the fireworks with lanterns, he loved it.

In the original play, she communicated with a tinkling bell sound."
Disney's Tinker Bell sprinkles pixie dust, something that has become synonymous with Disney's magic, but in the original creation of the character Tinker Bell (prior to Disney), it was fairy dust. Speaking of the original rendition of Tinker Bell, she first appeared in the 1904 play, “Peter Pan: or, The Boy Who Wouldn’t Grow Up” by Sir James M. Barrie. Why such disparate emotions? It’s simple; her diminutive size prevents her from holding more than one feeling at a time!"
And if you love magic hidden in real life, this is like small moments that turn everyday surprises into full-blown wow.
